Even When He Is Silent - Teaching Video

[@susannestechow]

The poor person who wrote this text on a wall of a concentration camp wanted surely to set a sign of hope in the middle of this hell.

[@McDice6464]

Never was a religious person. But the sheer magnitude of this music holds weight, amplifying my imagination of the Jewish prisoners' suffering, their belief in human kindness even when they've witnessed and experienced the darkest horrors of human evil. Music transcends all religions, race, and barriers. May there be peace in everyone's heart.

[@martimbrites68]

Last chord is so well tuned I can hear the C1

[@jennyhateseverything]

Bro these type of songs are literally nightmares to learn but once you actually get it and realize the weight of what you’re signing it’s beautiful

[@SoggySandwich80]

What voice r u?

[@curlyjawsh5309]

The 2 major 9 chords at the end ALWAYS give me chills, especially the Fmaj9. It’s soooo well balanced

[@bluefalcon5433]

Sorry to get all theory nerd here, but I’m pretty sure that’s an F2 chord. It’s not a F9 unless there’s also a 7th. That’s what I’ve always been taught.

[@rhynemusic4101]

Who ever wrote those words on concentration camp wall, I hope you hear from above how your words became a beautiful master piece.

[@Rednaxela137]

I forgot what document i watched but this was written on the wall in one of the concentration camps and hearing song versions of the lyrics is chilling and beautiful

[@derjungepadawan]

What a masterpiece!

[@memesfordays6193]

I hope to be able to teach this to my own choir some day. This song has a very heavy meaning to me and is truly beautiful.

[@heraldosilvafilho6424]

Very Beautiful!!!!!!

[@Bober909]

This is St. Jacobs Vokalensemble performing, for anyone wondering. Wonderful song.

[@richardjanzen]

Thanks, I'll edit the info. I'm a bit surprised the video gathered so many views. I made it for my choir that's preparing it for performance in May.

My thoughts while learning music

[@jacob.2]

What the

[@chrisnewman9693]

Lovely music. False equivalence in the lyrics

[@Whatismusic123]

Why pretend that there's any time signature change, when there obviously is none at all on the fermatas.

[@arianswets8513]

Probably a conceptual thing

[@Whatismusic123]

@@arianswets8513 sounds like a bad composer thing instead

[@arianswets8513]

[@leuphoniemusic]

Kind of Whitacre'ish.. so nothing new there. And unnecessarily high tessitura at times.
